Explaining the story on Radio 105, as per BILD, she said: "I had to go back to Italy, and as I was going through the metal detector, a policewoman came and wanted to check me.
"She squeezed my breasts. I was a little embarrassed.
"At one point, I took off almost all my clothes. I was wearing almost nothing under my arms and told her, 'Look, I have nothing under my arms'.

"But she insisted on tickling me under my arms, which was incredible torture. She also told me to take off my shoes and tickled me under my feet.
"It was traumatic because my brother held me like that (with his arms raised) and tickled me under the armpits. He was really strong. He tickled me all over my body and I used to wet my pants."
Diletta has been juggling her role in Italy with trips to Germany - and she hoped his next move would be in her homeland.
